Future of the KFL Championship Revealed

Last week's return of Friday Night Fights ushered in a new era of competition for The Great Arena, answering one of the pressing questions raised by December's Kombat Fight League closure! Still uncertain: The fate of the sub-league's KFL Championship!

The title was won by VenoMark in the final bout of 2015. It can now be announced that the KFL Championship lineage will continue in 2016!

On the council's decision to absorb the sub-league championship into the main ranks, spokesman Mick explained: "The KFL Championship has provided a target goal for a wide variety of fighters since its inception. It crosses thresholds that bridge the gap from the Division 2 to the Undisputed ranks. It's a unique and valuable alternative that I hope can become a stepping stone opportunity as its offered to a much wider array of fighters."

The increase in accessibility from the KFL's 50-some registered combatants is clearly a major draw for the league: "I'm looking forward to fresh title match-ups and a greater level of unpredictability. There are over 300 registered fighters as of 2016. Eligibility just went to a whole new level! Who knows what's in store for the KFL Championship?"

There won't be a long wait. The news comes with the announcement of the first KFL Championship match for 2016. For the first time in history, the KFL Championship will be defended on a Supercard when VenoMark answers the challenge of former KFL fighter and arch-rival: Mimik!

"Last week we saw the Division 2 Championship defended during Friday Night Fights for the very first time. In this spirit of integration, the first KFL Championship match of 2016 is going to take place at Supercard 74: Battle Royale. Mimik is highly motivated. It should be a great match."
